Your First Look at Blue Jays Pitchers and Catchers

Valentine’s Day; it’s the most romantic day of the year. And on this day, there are three words which are the ultimate sweet nothing for a baseball fan: pitchers and catchers.

Earlier today, Toronto Blue Jays pitchers and catchers reported for duty to take their physicals and prepare for tomorrow’s first full workout for batterymates. It’s a pretty innocuous affair, but there’s always something special about seeing pitchers and catchers roll into Dunedin.

Plenty of the position players are already at camp anyway – Josh Donaldson among them. At any rate, plenty of photos were taken from Florida Auto Exchange Stadium earlier today. Here are some of the highlights below.

Kudos to Rick Madonik of the Toronto Star for capturing one of the best Spring Training photos I’ve ever seen. That Joe Biagini, he’s such a character.

Ian has been writing about the Toronto Blue Jays since 2007. He enjoyed the tail-end of the Roy Halladay era and vividly remembers the Alex Rodriguez "mine" incident. He'll also retell the story of Game 5 of the ALDS to his kids for the next 20 years.
